The Cure "Disintegration" (2010 Reissue)
FORMAT | Double LP
Digitally remastered edition of The Cure's seminal eighth album. Originally released in 1989, Disintegration has come of age and has been remastered by Robert Smith to coincide with it's 21st anniversary. Features the hits 'Pictures of You', 'Lovesong', 'Fascination Street' and 'Lullaby'.
Dark, dreamlike and magical, Disintegration surely represents one of The Cure's finest hours.
Although retaining the darkest elements of the earlier albums, it pointed the way towards the band's later, more commercial work. The intoxicating music draws the listener inexorably downwards, but somehow one remains buoyant - rarely since this album has Robert Smith surpassed the beauty and yearning of Pictures Of You, or the poignant pop of Love Song. The nightmarish Lullaby, however, increases the pressure, and by the final tracks, all hope quite literally disintegrates. A unique and emotionally raw album, Disintegration evokes the sensation of inevitable, but desirable, death by drowning.
